Vehicle Donation FAQs
What can I donate?
All vehicles are considered! CARS strives to accept all types of donated vehicles (running or not) including cars, trucks, trailers, boats, RVs, motorcycles, campers, off-road vehicles, planes, heavy equipment, farm machinery, and most other motorized vehicles.
Does my vehicle need to be running?
No! Vehicles are accepted regardless of engine condition; however, your car must be in one piece and towable, have an engine and be tow truck accessible.
What do I need in order to donate?
You will need a current and clear title. Any lien holder listed on the title must be cleared and/or released by the bank. Please contact CARS at 855.500.RIDE (7433) with questions.
What if I don’t have a title for my vehicle?
Please contact a CARS’ donor support representative at 855.500.RIDE (7433) to discuss your options.
How does my tax deduction work?
The law concerning vehicle donation tax claims has changed since 2005. Any vehicle sold for over $500.00 requires a 1098-C, which you will receive from the CARS office after your vehicle has sold, if applicable. If your vehicle sells for under $500.00, you may use your donation receipt, provided by CARS at the time of pick-up, to claim up to $500.00.
